We are grateful to the CMA team for their support and thoughtful guidance. The past 14 months were filled with challenges, and they helped us navigate our way through to the right solutions. We are looking forward to our next chapter of growth and to many more years as one of the country’s longest continually-operating textile manufacturers.

We are extremely appreciative of CMA’s leadership and guidance throughout the transaction process. Their team played an important role in formalizing our preexisting partnership with Nu Aire, providing us with insights we might not have considered and effective ways to align our businesses to meet the diverse needs of end-users.

I am grateful to CMA and to Chris Parisi for their strategic advice, diligence, and persistence in helping achieve the desired result for Pet Qwerks. We very much appreciate their hard work and partnership in finding the right buyer and effectively negotiating the sale during the pandemic.

CMA brought an intimate understanding of the needs of our founder-owned business as well as a true sense of partnership, which was even more important given the virtual nature of the transaction. We are so grateful to Chris and his team for their extraordinary guidance during this process, and for helping us find a great firm in Verista. We are excited for the next phase of our growth and opportunities for our colleagues.

The real strength of CMA is our people, professionals who understand the weight of every decision because they have made those decisions themselves. It’s a team grounded in accountability, shaped by experience, and driven by empathy for the leaders and companies we serve.

While the world around us continues to shift, our values remain constant. We lead with accountability, empathy, and a deep respect for the people behind every business. It’s our legacy — this balance, honoring where we have come from while adapting to what’s next, that keeps us relevant, grounded, and proud to be part of every story we help shape.
